Yacht Calm's crews hang off the rails as she chases Shogun after the start of the Sydney Hobart yacht race in Sydney, Australia, Wednesday, Dec. 26, 2012. With spinnakers up, the 76-yacht fleet weaved its way around thousands of spectator craft in the harbor before heading out to the Tasman Sea for the 628-nautical-mile (723-mile; 1,163-kilometer) race to the island state of Tasmania.
